Strong community for worldwide machinery safety

Pilz launches international online community for CMSE®-Certified Machinery Safety Experts!

Since 2013, the automation and safety company, Pilz, has been working with TÜV Nord to offer the CMSE®-Certified Machinery Safety Expert qualification. More than 1,800 experts in over 40 countries have passed the corresponding examination. Now they can all use www.cmse.com to network, with access to exclusive, practical content.

The CMSE® Community is a global community of machinery safety experts. In a private area on www.cmse.com members have access to the latest news with relevant, specialist, innovative articles, written and edited by Pilz experts.

With the CMSE® Community, Pilz is creating the very first platform for international exchange among machinery safety practitioners.

Each CMSE® is automatically granted free access to the community. For those without a CMSE® qualification, information on how to gain certification can be found at www.cmse.com.
